My name is Justin Robert, and I live in Montana. I have been riding snowmobiles for the past 10 years. I'm completely in love with snowmobiling because it's fun, relaxing, and a great workout.

Recently, I got involved in ice fishing, and I really liked it. The joy of catching fish on the frozen lake can't be described.
